jefferis:
How about having a single script dig through the directory tree and link the items it finds to 100 output directories. Then each of your 100 processing scripts can troll through their own input directory for items to process. That way you can avoid most of the locking problems. If you make your script that assigns items to queues, it could even watch the output directories and generate image links in the smallest directory available to balance the load (in case some process more quickly than others).

When your only tool is a hammer, all problems look like your thumb.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
